Foxconn Quantum Force Black Ops X48 OC Guide (56k Warning)

gmcq,

3. Use 177.26 driver for you videocard. It requires some modification of nv_disp.inf file, described in 3D guru thread.

And why? I used the same drivers as I am now under the Asus and was getting excellent scores

Caz I got +900 point with it in 3dmark vantage (P13084 vs P12178), for example. If you don't like some more points use whatever you like. Get rid of this board and use Asus, it is up to you.

4. Tighten your memory settings - look which ones people use
LOL - this board wont even let me go one step up from 1066, when my memory is 1333 capable.

Add some voltage to your memory, it is pretty safe to use 1.8 or 1.9V, with some cooling I would say it is pretty safe up to 2.1 V on DDR3. My memory has in specification 2.0V

Update: After a bit of tweaking i have now a read of 11408 in everest and a score of 15960 approx in 3D Mark 06

here you are

So is this board worth keeping or should i sell it and concentrate on the Evga Ultra Sli
I am interested in getting rid of one of them and i thought it was the Evge. but this
conversation is really making me think.

Such as you can't use SLI with BlackOps and according to your signature you want to use SLI, get rid of BlackOps and use 790i (good luck to get it stable) or try Dreadnought.

For some reason I can not get my new Everest Ultimate to work. It keep saying "Invalid floating point operation" and I just bought it 3 days ago?

Use Everest Ultimate BETA 1383 or upper (1403, for example http://download.softpedia.ro/dl/17a0...build_1403.zip), it should help.
Some boards are too new for a release version ...
